First Grade Friday News - February 15


 
Hooray!  Our students brought enough chapel money to buy a water buffalo and a llama through Heifer International!  Chapel offerings from now through April 3 will go to Habitat for Humanity.  We will raise money to help build a home for a family here in Little Rock.

We need empty cube-shaped tissue boxes for an upcoming Nature Club project.  Please send these by March 4. 

If you missed the PALS meeting last Monday, you missed a great speaker.  You might want to check out the parenting classes offered by The Centers for Youth and Families at CentersForYouthAndFamilies.org.  They are only $15 and childcare is provided.
